Boat from Benoa Harbour (Bali) to Nusa Lembongan. Boat from there to Ceningan Island (30mins). Break is in View of the bridge connecting the 2 islands, on the southern side.

Can also take motorbike from lembongan and drive over the 'san francisco bridge' (you will laugh when you get there) onto peninda and then drive around. It's worth the ride even if no swell.

Additional Information

Deep Water break, throwing out a heap of power. A heap of current runs through here, sucking you towards the point. This place will really test how long you can hold your breath, and how strong your leggie is. If your leggie does break, kiss your board goodbye.

Jump in off the cliff, it's the easiest way.

Atmosphere

This wave breaks out of VERY deep water, it's always bigger than any of the other spots on Lembongen and is worth checking if nowhere else is breaking. Watch out for sharks though - there's a breeding ground somewhere near. Locals will warn you (or refuse to take you out) if the shark problem is bad. Very powerful wave and it's eerie surfing it cos you're between 2 islands, with the waves, as I've already said, coming out of VERY deep water. Take care when surfing!!

General

Chances are a stray set will give you an absolute hiding.Awesome wave, works best on a low to mid tide and when every other surf break on the island is not working. When it gets big there is a freefall for bodyboarders and surfers alike. Make sure you watch out for the seaweed farming metal stakes at the end of the wave.

Shit wave, good place to lose your wallet. - There are two restaurants at the break where you park your bike......but be WARNED! Valuables go missing very easily if left anywhere near those places. The punk kids that serve overpriced food will of course deny all knowledge of this. Just be warned, Wave is average by the way, a pussies version of an Indo wave.

Sharks? Currents? - I was out there in June this year and never had any problems with sharks or rips. Did have a bit of a problem though with the local boys running the shop/warung on the point. They were trying to intimidate people into paying for parking scooters there, well out of order. They were trying to make it impossible to get down to the beach by blocking the several paths down with thorn bushes etc, forcing you to go onto the point past their spot to get to the water. Definitely watch out for the stakes just below the surface on mid to high, saw someone holed there.
